With a quick online search, you can find that 365 - 988 million (or 1 billion) birds collide with windows and other reflective and transparent surfaces on buildings and other manmade structures each year in the U.S. We don't always see the bodies of our feathered friends since they are quickly disposed of by groundskeeping and other animals, so I wanted to create an art piece that illustrated some of the local songbird species in Rochester. This piece isn't meant to guilt anyone or spur on a movement for bird-proofing windows. It is simply to bring attention to an issue that many may not have noticed or heard of.
